One of the fastest ways to move permanently to the USA is to have a potential job in an American company and the right to work in that country. However, obtaining a work visa in the United States is also fraught with certain difficulties and has its own "pitfalls", which should be known before preparing documents for departure.
Instruction manual

In order to go to America to work, you must have an invitation from an American employer. In this case, the main difficulties associated with the execution of documents fall on the shoulders of the inviting party, that is, the future American boss.

The H-18 work visa gives a foreign citizen the right to be in the United States and legally work in any professional field. Typically, this visa is issued immediately for a period of 3 years, during which a foreigner can freely and repeatedly enter the United States and leave them. After three years, the visa can be extended for a period of up to 6 years, if the applicant has an official workplace.

To obtain a work visa, it does not matter if the future employer is an individual or legal entity. An invitation can come from either a company or a private person who is ready to hire you. The employer, in turn, must first obtain permission from the Federal Department of Labor to hire a foreign citizen. To do this, he will have to prove the uniqueness of this foreign specialist and the impossibility of replacing the workplace with local candidates.

To obtain a visa you will need a certificate of graduation or professional certificates confirming your qualifications. The only exceptions are professional models, which do not require diplomas. But they must confirm their fame and level of professionalism with publications in the press, work experience in large modeling agencies, as well as the presence of world recognition and prizes received from famous fashion designers and designers.

The process of obtaining a work visa takes place in two consecutive stages. First, the future employer submits a package of documents to the Federal Department of Labor, from which it follows that he is ready to accept you for work and agrees to pay a salary comparable to those in this labor sphere. In addition, the documents justify the need for his company to invite a foreign specialist. After approval of the submitted documents by the department, the future employee must apply for a visa at the American consulate located in his country of residence.

In some cases, a work visa can be obtained while already in the United States. To do this, you will have to provide the same information and the same documents that can confirm your professional qualifications and level of education.
